Improve Your Body Shape Before Summer Vacation

Summer is just around the corner, and many of us are dieting and going to the gym in an attempt to get our “beach bodies” ready in time for the vacation season. It can sometimes be difficult to stick to the goals we set for ourselves, and of course lots of people have problem areas on their body which are resistant to dieting and exercise, no matter how much time and effort we spend. While there is no replacement for eating healthy and exercising often, sometimes all we need is a little help to get that “beach body” we're aiming for.

Before going into more detail, ask yourself these questions Are you concerned about your loose, saggy, wrinkled skin? Do you have pockets of unwanted fat and cellulite? Are you looking for a painless and effective treatment to improve the appearance of your skin and body? If you've answered 'yes' to any of these questions, you may want to try Venus Freeze, a new FDA-cleared treatment to improve your body's shape and appearance.

What Is Venus Freeze?

This new technology uses pulsed magnetic fields, which can increase oxygen, nutrients and blood to the skin giving the skin an immediate and long lasting glow.

This technology was specifically developed to provide you with a safe, pleasant, and pain-free experience in treatments for the face and body including arms, abdomen, thighs, buttocks, neck and face.

How it Works

Venus Freeze works by incorporating multi-polar radio frequency and magnetic pulsed fields into one device and delivering it safely and effectively to the patient.

Skin tightening, wrinkle reduction and cellulite reduction may occur because the multi-polar radio frequency causes a thermal response in the tissue, which activates the body's natural healing response. That healing response can help cause new collagen to form, new elastin fibers and the production of fibroblasts to increase. The existing collagen in the skin contracts (this causes the skin to look and feel firmer) and the elastin fibers unravel (which makes the skin more elastic).

Body contouring is achieved when the temperature of the skin is elevated, the body releases stress hormones. These hormones pass through the blood stream, and attach themselves to specific receptors on the membrane of the fat cell in the hypodermis (the deepest layer of the skin). The stress hormone, once attached to the receptor, activates the hormone sensitive lipase the hormone that is in charge of breaking down triglycerides into free fatty acids. The free fatty acids exit the fat cell through the blood stream, and the volume of the fat cell is thus reduced, giving you a smoother, more contoured shape.

What to Expect

Treatments are non-invasive and painless, with many patients comparing the treatment to a hot-stone massage. Treatments take approximately 30-40 minutes depending on the area. You can expect to see results as the treatments progress; a minimum of six treatments for the face, six on the neck, and eight on the body.
